“Reading the world.”————Feedback

Key words: global reading plan abundance

As the speaker described her plan of reading the world, she tried to get one book of each country around the world, translated into English. She got through many tough time and finally, she manged to finish her own reading. As for me, I learned just like what the speaker expressed: “In that case, as I found so often during my year of reading the world, my not knowing and being open about my limitations had become a big opportunity.”

While reading a book, it’s a chance not only to learn something new and discover a set of stories, but also expand our horizons. As those who enjoy reading will know, books have an extraordinary power to take you out of yourself and into someone else’s mindset. Therefore, for a quite while, you will look at the world through different views. Maybe there exists some cultural conflicts or values, but it can also be really enlightening. Wrestling with unfamiliar ideas can help clarify your own thinking. And it can also show up blind spots in the way you might have been looking at the world.

If we can make our own plan like this, the information in those books can make me more alive to the richness, diversity and complexity of our remarkable planet than ever before.
